If you visit the Autosport.com website you can win a chance to spend a day driving an M3 at the Nurburgring.

And just to make it more interesting, looking at the pictures it looks like you can drive the opposite way round to the norm...that could be interesting...

The BMW training days would break it down into sections that you'd drive as a group, wait at the end, then everyone would turn around and drive back to the start of the section to repeat it again. It sounds like that's what it is.

There was a brilliant video i saw recently on youtube ( can't find it now) showing the ringmini, doing a timed hill climb from Adenau up to the ring, then it goes onto the circuit at the start of the start finish straight and does a lap in the wrong direction. It looks well scary.

Will keep looking and post link

stuff driving it backwards, thats not the best bit.

if it is the full BMW nurburgring training days then you will also get to slow a car down using the armco and not the brakes. Well worth the cash.
